Actually, if you read the listing carefully, he's providing a buyer's guide to the W123, and it includes the M110 engine. He does not state that the offered vehicle is included with this engine.

He accurately lists the specifications of the 300D in the appropriate section.

This is one of the few knowledgable sellers of these vehicles, IMHO.

Yes, he has sold flood vehicles (Remember the 300Td with the water filled headlight, pictured with the same background?) but this one looks very nice. I didn't see any significant blemishes on the car.

FWIW, big chunks of his "buyer's guide to the W123" appear to be very similar to passages of text from this: Buyers Guide To Type W123 Mercedes-Benz Vehicles 1976-1984.

Blast from the past - the pictures are gone, but the rest of the auction description is still intact: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=4590022330.
